About
I’m a computer scientist at Saarland University of Applied Sciences (htw saar), where I head the Systems Technology Lab (STL). Before joining htw saar, I worked in the banking sector, focusing on investment banking, regulatory compliance, and risk management. I hold a PhD (Dr.-Ing.) in distributed systems from TU Darmstadt.
My interests span business information systems, business process management, incentive systems, persuasion and negotiation, and games of many types. Further interests can be found here. I have seen the fnords.
classicthesis 
classicthesis is a template bundle I developed for the typesetting system \(\rm\LaTeX\). Its goal is to offer authors a timeless, high-quality typographic style, inspired by Robert Bringhurst’s “The Elements of Typographic Style”.
If you enjoy using the template, I’d be delighted to receive a postcard. My mailing address is listed in the manual. You can also browse a collection of postcards I’ve received here.

Donald E. Knuth awarded me a reward check for three hexadecimal dollars (that’s $7.68) for reporting three errors in “Selected Papers on Computer Science.”
